LIQUID vs GEL EYELINER: part 2 - GEL EYELINER*

There is always a battle between gel and liquid eyeliners. I personally use both it depends on my look. A lot of you asked me which I recommend? But I would have to say it matters what you are looking for. Do you want easy, no mess application, or maybe bold, matte finish cat eye look?

For easier understanding and choosing what you want to try and use for your makeup routine I will get a little more in detail down below. I will also show you the process of application, so you will exactly see what you can expect. 

Že od nekdaj obstaja bitka med tekočim črtalom za oči in tistim v gelu. Sama uporabljam oba, odvisno je le od tega kakšen look hočem doseči. Veliko punc me je vprašalo katerega priporočam, oziroma katerega naj uporabljajo? Vendar moram reči da je vse odvisno od tega kaj želite doseči. Ali želite enostavno aplikacijo ali mogoče malo bolj poudarjeno linijo cat eye?

Za lažje razumevanje in pa enostavnejšo izbiro med sledečima oblikama črtal za oči, vam bom podrobneje predstavila oba. Kasneje vam pokažem tudi potek aplikacije obeh črtal, da si boste vse skupaj tudi lažje predstavljale. 

GEL EYELINER

Usually it comes in a little glass or plastic jar with plastic top. Not so common that they also come with brush. But even if they do, it is not so great. So you probably need a gel eyeliner brush. Consider this when buying a gel eyeliner. The application of this eyeliner is messier than the liquid one. Also you have to be very precise so you don't mess up. You can easily make the line thicker then you prefer, because the product is much thicker, so you have to be very careful. The finish of gel eyeliner is very black, bold, matte finish. It looks gorgeous and I prefer to wear it, just because it looks more natural.

Večinoma je pakiran v steklenem lončku s črnim plastičnim pokrovčkom. Ponavadi embalaži ni priložen čopič za nanos produkta, kar ni ravno najboljša novica. Zato potrebujete pri uporabi črtala v gelu kupiti tudi čopič, ne pozabite. Aplikacija črtala je malo težja kot tekočega in verjetno tudi bolj umazana. Pri samem nanosu morate biti pazljive, da črte ne naredite preveč debele, saj se to kaj hitro lahko zgodi. Končni izgled črtala za oči v gelu je zelo temen, črn in mat finiš, kar je meni osebno veliko bolj všeč, saj uzgleda res kar se da naravno.

LIQUID vs GEL EYELINER: part 1 - LIQUID EYELINER*

LIQUID EYELINER

It is available in a "pen" form. It can have different tips, the form for application. It can be long bristles, or very hard foam kind of a tip. I have to say that I prefer the second one, because you have a lot more control. Like I said before - longer the handle, more precise you can be. So if you have very short liquid liner top (like essence liners have), it will be harder to have a control of a perfect line. If you just started to do makeup, or you are new in the eyeliner world, I suggest to try first with liquid liners. They are much easier to start with and it also gives you time to correct the line, which you don't have with the gel form. 

Navadno je pakiran v embalaži v obliki svinčnika, bodisi je ta majhen ali pa večji. Razlikujejo se le po konici, s katero nanašamo produkt. Najprej imamo tiste ki imajo zelo tanek in dolg čopič, nato pa še tiste, ki imajo konico oblikovano v špičasto peno, ki je malo trša na otip. Svetovala bi vam da pri sledečih črtalih upoštevate da je bolje imeti daljši ročaj na pokrovčku, saj imate tako večji nadzor nad linijo, in ste posledično tudi bolj natančne. Na žalost večina essence eyelinerjev tega preprosto nima. Če ste nove v svetu ličil, in se s črtali za oči šele spoznavate, bi vam svetovala da mogoče najprej poskusite s tekočo obliko, saj boste z njim ustvarile veliko bolj natančno in precizno linijo.

CITY GIRL London*

Hello beauty lovers. In todays little post I will share with you what I got in the mail the other day. I was lucky enough to try and test the beauty set from Parisax. As you can see it comes in a beautiful box that opens like a book. On the left side we can see the details of the six products. Now let's get a look...

Firstly we have thick eyeliner. It is very creamy and higly pigmented. It glides on smoothly. Then there are false eyelashes. They come with a Natural eyelash glue. The lashes are super soft and the look pretty natural. I will be wearing them on Sunday and will update you about lasting. The third product in the beauty set is the cheek butter. A dual purpose lip and cheek color for fast application. Its silicone texture makes the blending easier and somewhat velvety finish. For me this was the first time using creme blush and I have to say that I love it. It is super pigmented and on my skin it looks much more natural then the powder does. Then we have a BB cream. This gathers products like moisturizer, facial serum, primer, foundation and even sunblock. The texture of the cream is super creamy, thick and it has amazing coverage. It is a bit too light for me, because my skin has a tan, but I applied it under my eyes to brighten them, and let me tell you that it covers just as much as my essence cover stick concealer does. Then you have a pink lipgloss. It is very moisturizing and gives my lips enough color in just one stroke. It is the most perfect pink lip colour. I am in love. It contains a purple undertone so it makes your teeth even whiter. Last product is just a regular black eyeliner, which works great on my waterline and it didn't smudge.

You can purchuase City Girl London beauty set right here for only 12.00 €, 9.61 £, 16.02 $.

Živjo punce. Danes bom z vami delila super paketek ličil, ki sem ga prejela za probo od Parisax. Kot vidite paketek izgleda kot knjiga in ko jo odprete na levi strani lahko vidimo opis izdelkov, na desni strani pa šest izdelkov za celoten look. No pa poglejmo kaj se nahaja v škatli... Najprej imamo debel svinčnik, ki ga nanesemo kot senčilo. Je izjemno kremast in zelo dobro pigmentiran. Nato sem takoj opazila umetne trepalnice. Te so zelo naravne in izredno mehke. Sicer jih še nisem sprobala, ker jih bom nosila v nedeljo in vam sporočim kako se obnesejo. Zraven je priloženo tudi lepilo za trepalnice, ki je naravnega izvora. Naslednja stvar v setu je kremno rdečilo. To se lahko uporablja za ustnice kot tudi za lička. Je izjemno dobro pigmentirano in se zelo dobro zabriše. Moram vam povedat, da nikoli prej nisem uporabljala kremnih rdečil, ampak po tem sem navdušena. Ker imam bolj suho kožo izgleda zelo naravno in trenutno ga imam raje kot tiste v prahu. Naslednja je na vrsti BB krema. Ta združuje vlažilno kremo, serum, podlago za nanos pudra, tekočo podlago in zaščitni faktor. Krema je izredno kremasta in dobro prekriva. Ker je zame v poletnih mesecih presvetla sem jo uporabila, da osvetlim del pod očmi, in moram vam povedati, da prekriva prav tako dobro kot essence cover stick concealer. Navdušena sem. Nato je na vrsti moj najljubši izdelek. To je roza lipglos, ki je kremast, ustnice vlaži, poleg tega pa je prekriven kot šminka. Je popolne barve, saj ima vijoličen oziroma moder podton, kar še posebej poudari bele zobe. Na koncu pa imamo še črn svinčnik za oči. Tega sem sprobala tako, da sem čez nanesla še črno senčilo in moram reči, da je na mojih učkah ostal cel dan.

Paketek City Girl London lahko kupite tukaj za samo 12.00 €.

 

NA KONCU PA ŠE PRESENEČENJE ZA BRALKE MOJEGA BLOGA. OD DANES IMATE  15% POPUSTA NA KATERIKOLI IZDELEK PO VAŠI IZBIRI V SPLETNI TRGOVINI PARISAX. NA BLAGAJNI SAMO VPIŠITE IME KUPONA - NIKA

Best of Essence

Essence is a German brand of make-up and other beauty products. It is super cheap, so it is amazing for teens, if you want to expand your make-up collection, or if you are just looking great make-up on a budget. 

iluminating make-up base; for a natural glowing, radiant complexion, moisturizes the skin, conceals small imperfections. It also makes foundation application easier and extends its wear.

This make-up base really does what it claims. I was more then satisfied with the coverage that it gives you. And when you put foundation over it, it gives you perfect glow. Mine is peachy, pink colour and it suits dark skin tones perfectly.

forget it! 3 in 1 concealer; this is probably the best products from essence. You get pink, beige and green colours for covering up imperfections on your face. The consistancy is so creamy and it glides on your face like butter. Love the pink and the beige one, as you can see I'm not a big fan of a green one.

silky touch blush in babydoll; pretty pink blush for fresh looking skin, Perfect for Valentine's day look! It lasts all day and it is pretty pigmented.

lash&brow gel mascara; clear mascara which I use for my eyebrows. I wrote a post on this-wasn't really happy with it, but now I fall in love!! Great product and it holds my eyebrows all day long.

gel eyeliner in Midnight in Paris; high precision eyeliner, waterproof. It is creamy, ultra black, matt gel eyeliner and it does not smudge. I use it every day and I am very happy with it- classiy black! Plus the paskaging looks more expensive then it is. It comes in glass.

stay all day long lasting eyeshadow in coppy right and steel the show; cream eyeshadows with great pigmentation. Does not crease. You get a ton of product becaus little goes a long way and you will have it for a long time.

metallic effect eyeshadow in party all night. Great eyeshadow which is super soft. The colour speaks for itself. BEAUTIFUL!

glam liner, liquid eyeliner in rising star; most amazing brush- really thin and precise! I use it under my waterline. Great for holiday makeup.

metallic eye pencil in lilectric; super pigmented and amazig colour effect. Use it under my water line for a pop of colour. Really compliments dark, brown eyes.

sun club, 100% splash-proof eye pencil in ultra black; pigmented black eyeliner, which is not waterproof, but it stays all day on my eyes. It contains slight shimmers and does not work on waterline. But under your waterline it is super pretty and it really is longlasting.

blush brush; I put a post about this brush already and I love it. Soft, soft, soft..hot pink- great combination.

gel eyeliner brush; Find this brush is too thick for eyeliner, but is amzing for putting on eyeshadows and smudging my pencil eyeliner.
